Omschrijving

Exploring cultural resistance by creating and archiving Latinx performance art

Performance is often seen as ephemeral, a condition that seemingly reduces its activist possibilities. After all, not everyone can take part or bear witness. Beyond the Moment shows how Latinx artists have responded with a theater of dissent that endures--performance art that also documents and can itself be archived, creating opportunities for sustained solidarity and resistance.

Through close readings of works such as Coco Fusco's multi-genre performance A Field Guide for Female Interrogators, Irene Mata theorizes what she calls "textual mentoring." This method involves tracing previous moments of resistance, archiving the creative process itself, and transforming the performance into a pedagogical tool. By means of textual mentoring, a work like The Panza Monologues becomes a lesson in confronting systemic oppression through collaborative storytelling. Mata also shows how the 2012 No Papers, No Fear Ride for Justice, a multistate immigrant-rights action, relies on a vocabulary of refusal of movements of the past--like the Freedom Rides of the Civil Rights era--and continues its activism beyond its immediate performance context by digitally archiving its process. With an emphasis on intersectional critique, Beyond the Moment positions performance as a radical form of resistance that educates and inspires across generations and movements.
